YOCOCU (YOuth in COnservation of CUltural heritage)
Researches, conservation and restoration operations in the field of
cultural heritage are often the result of a balance between two
contributions: the experience and the creativity. Cultural heritage
consists of unique artifacts that require a great experience for their
conservation and valorization. On the other hand, they constitute new
challenges to be approached through new ideas and a strong creativity,
aspects often characteristic of young professionals and researchers.
YOCOCU (Youth in Conservation of Cultural heritage) intends to focus on
the contribution of these people, but itneeds solutions. It needs
change. It needs action. It need all professional both young than senior
The main aim is:
a) to promote conservation and valorization of cultural heritage
b)
to give a voice to young professionals, to provide them with tools and
opportunities to show their participation in the development of the
sector.
c) to match senior conservators with junior professionals
Other
important topics are: to show and recognize researches and professional
activities developed by the youths and to promote a dialog on
occupational strategies for the young professionals in an
interdisciplinary environment. The active participation of a young and
senior person is an extraordinary way to spread the needs of cultural
heritage conservation within the community, relating more easily with a
dynamic society and with the future generations. For this, it’s
necessary to offer to all young people, including those who have no
affiliation and fewer opportunities, to get involved and give their
contribution.
In YOCOCU senior and young professionals, students
and researchers are called to increase and strengthen their
consciousness to be the main actors of the present and future society
and TO DEVELOP NEW WAYS AND METHODS OF KNOWLDGE. This is the reason of
YOCOCU: ALL works together for a collective interest and show this in an
unique association open to all. The senior professionals are strongly
invited to participate to this process and to exchange your ideas and
experiences with young professionals.
